Did you get any responses to this?
Hello and sorry for the late reply guys,
I was able to gather some info contacting the exchanges individualy but by the most part the models are "Liquidity Rebates" & "Volume Discounts".
In my opinion:
The "Volume Discounts" would not work for MM but would benefit pools and payment processors.
The "Liquidity Rebates" model is interesting but its a major PITA during breakouts.
Not much information here (sorry).

Bitcoins are extremely different from national currencies. What does that define the functions of bitcoin market makers?
bitcoin market makers helps the buyers and sellers to consummate transactions; but the demand for bitcoin is more stable compared to stock market, because the majority of the people buy bitcoins for a specific purpose, which is different from stock market. Bitcoin exchange is after all a commodity market instead of a stock market.
Everyone knows that many traders are speculators who tries to capture price differences. They play a positive role in increasing the liqudity of bitcoins, As more and more people spend and accept bitcoin payments, the importance of them drops, and their trading volume will be drop, so does bitcoin market makers.
Bitcoin exchanges and market makers are not supervised as financial organizations, therefore it's a risk factor.
If i'm not precise, corrections are appreciate.
